capital. The afternoon is free for individual sightseeing.

Sunday 5th

Departing our hotel we visit the Irish National Stud at Kildare, home to some of Ireland’s most revered thoroughbreds
and the adjacent Japanese Gardens. Later we continue via Adare, Ireland’s ‘prettiest village’, with its delightful, thatched
cottages before arriving in Killarney for our 4-night stay.

Discover the secrets of the Ring of Kerry, as our guided tour takes us via Killorglin; famed for its annual Puck Fair, to
Glenbeigh, with its Bog Village. We continue around the Iveragh Peninsula, ascending Peakeen Mountain, around Moll’s Gap
and Ladies View before finally descending back into Killarney, along the glittering shores of Lough Leane.

2 ½ million Irish people who emigrated from Ireland via Cobh on coffin ships, early steamers and finally on the great ocean

accommodation at the 3-star Dooley’s Hotel.
